  • Description: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>On the basis of a single‐phase structural model a theory has been developed, which yields a relation between the fiber compliance and the chain axis distribution. It is shown that this relation, viz. <jats:disp-formula> </jats:disp-formula></jats:p><jats:p>Is quantitatively fulfilled for poly(<jats:italic>p</jats:italic>‐phenylene terephthalamide) fibers studied in this investigation.</jats:p>
